Dubai is marking the 30th anniversary of Global Village with a unique initiative for visitors and residents.
The General Directorate of Identity and Foreigners Affairs (GDRFA), in partnership with Global Village, has announced that all visas issued from Dubai will feature the Global Village Season 30 logo.
In addition, a special entry stamp with the logo will be given to arriving travellers.
As part of the celebration, visitors whose passports carry the Season 30 stamp will enjoy free entry to Global Village for ten days starting October 15 — the official opening date.
The stamp must appear alongside the regular entry stamp, and the offer is valid for a single visit only.
Global Village kicks off its milestone 30th season this coming week, promising another showcase of cultural, culinary and entertainment experiences from around the world.
